In this tutorial, I will show you how to create a fun 3D pixel font type treatment. Using a free font, gradients, and Illustrator 3D filter, you will easily create a type treatment that you can apply to many other fonts. - Rype
Runtime for this video tutorial is about thirty minutes. Aside for one point where I'm just sitting there drinking coffee (I thought I hit pause), it's reasonably professional. The tutorial is covered from start to finish, so you can see how this 3D Pixel Illustration is built in illustrator. I give shortcuts and tips as the illustration is built as well. For the written tutorial visit Create a Vibrant 3D Pixel Type Treatment.
Let me know any feedback you have in the comments. I plan to do more of these, so any advice you all have would be helpful.

I wasn’t a fan of reading the written tutorial while working on the video, I found it distracting. Thank you for the video section though! Great effect!
